Does a carburnout can ignite a spilled gasoline that goes beneath the tires ?

Question

In some incidents this thing has happened many times in america because people here love to burnout their vehicles please help me confirm this.

Answer 1

It might be possible if there are a lot of pebbles that spark when you spin your tires but there would have to be a good amount of gas ind it would have to have just spilled.

Answer 2

Yes it can happen, plain and simple.

Answer 3

YES, and it HAS happened. At drag race events, it was discovered that pouring bleach by the tires made a lot more smoke, and that gas caused even more smoke. Haven't you ever seen a tire catch fire from a long burnout? Yes they do catch fire and that's why using gasoline as a visual burnout aid was quickly banned at professional events.

Answer 4

nah thats c**p mate..Only thing it does is makes more smoke,its like a lubricant..We always used WD-40 when doing a burn out..

Answer 5

gasoline, yes! A burnout generates tremendous heat. I have seen tires catch on fire, and gas has a much lower ignition point. So don't go on a suicide mission by doing it.

Answer 6

Tires burning is not the same temperature as gasoline catching fire.  If there were gasoline on the surface, it would only lubricate the tire / road and LOWER the temperature.

Sounds like BS.

Good Luck...

Answer 7

I'd be worried about a fuel leak, but it's not impossible.
